I joined for a number of reasons; education being a small part but gaining access to a well established network of like-minded, high performers in the multifamily world was far more important to me. 

You can still get units filled during November-March, it's just colder so traction seems slower with tenants - during those months, I personally think you have to be more competitive with what you're going to ask for in rent versus what's nearby that's available/better if not same condition. 3.

This is a place for people to gain knowledge and education and ask questions to get guidance.I have seen sites where GP’s are not allowed to comment on posts (or even see posts in some instances) that were from a ticked off investor and personally not a fan as if someone can throw shade at another person / company without any consequence and / or allow the other party to respond - I feel like it’s just another form of censorship which I oppose

I'm excited to learn more, gain the education, and utilize the tools I need to succeed.

Additionally, I’ve deepened my understanding of real estate terminology and gained valuable insights into the critical aspects of properties, from structural components to factors to look out for. 

It appears I'll need a 1031 exchange to offset substantial capital gains. 

It’s clear that you’re taking the right steps by educating yourself and connecting with others in forums and groups.Keep leveraging the knowledge you’re gaining, and remember that patience and consistency are key.

Working with a reliable contractor was another smart move, making the rehab more manageable.Even though the profit wasn’t what you hoped for considering the time investment, you’ve gained valuable experience.

: If you’re planning to hold the property long-term, the repairs may not be as concerning since you’ll gain appreciation over time and benefit from consistent cash flow.

There are situations where we could have a paper loss but still be able to show some cash flow, which is ideal.One of the downsides to selling property 1 is the potential for depreciation recapture and capital gains from any appreciation.
